Min Jun's concerned voice sounded from the other side of the door. "Young Jae! I am here to give you something."
Young Jae did not want to see anyone, including his wolf. The shame and disgust started to eat him alive. The naivety and stupidity about his teenage self's accidents disgusted him.
"I am not hungry." Young Jae responded. His throat felt like sandpaper from all the crying. His throat burned in dryness, but he did not want the pain and discomfort to leave yet. The pain only kept him grounded.
"It is not food." Min Jun's heart ached. He had no idea who the hell Jo Rim was, but he wanted to kill Jo Rim for pushing his tokki back into his shell.
The only relief he felt was he filled a flask with warm water for his tokki.
All the happiness he felt knowing his tokki might date him one day vanished with the first drop of tears. In front of his tokki's pain, his happiness did not matter.
